Thema: RPS Artikel / Auszug: The fallen price of indie games | Antwort auf: Unspezifische und Unkategorisierbare News! von Don Cosmo | |
This is an adapted extract from The Weapons of Progress: From Videogame Revolution to Control. The book is a work in progress, but the first two chapters can be downloaded for free from itch.io. [https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2017/02/09/the-fallen-price-of-indie-games/] Längerer Text auf RPS, scheint lesenswert, mit vielen Verlinkungen auf entsprechende Quellen. Ich missbrauche das Forum mal als Bookmark! Auszug aus dem Auszug: British developer Alan Hazelden also revealed that most first-year PC sales of his puzzler A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build had been made through discounts. Discounts create revenue spikes. These spikes are so pronounced that the official price is all too often a fantasy, a framing device to make the real discounted price look like a bargain. Discount price dominates revenue and indeed, for many developers, it would not be far-fetched to suggest a game without a discount is a game off the market. |
